How the heck could chicken wings be healthy let alone, help you lose weight?
Well, believe it or not - this is a staple recipe that I prescribe to my weight loss clients, and time and time again - they have successfully used it to lose fat.
The reason that this recipe is so great for weight loss is because of its satiety index.
The satiety index is simply a scale by which foods are measured by their degree of satisfaction.
And chicken wings score high on this scale because of their high protein content.
You see, protein is actually one of the most satiating macronutrients and therefore helps you stay full for longer.
This is incredibly important when trying to lose weight because you want to maximize the amount of time you can stay full with the foods you consume.
